Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present study aims to evaluate the impact of expanding criteria beyond Milan on tumor recurrence and patient survival that will help identify the best selection criteria for HCC transplanted patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Introduction:

HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA (HCC) is the second leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for HCC patients has emerged as a rewarding therapy for a cure and a successful alternative where a Deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT) program is lacking. Therefore, trials for careful expansion to Milan criteria have been adopted.

Aim of the study:

To evaluate the impact of expanding criteria beyond Milan on tumor recurrence and patient survival that will help identify the best selection criteria for HCC transplanted patients
